Anyone who has thought about why his computer starts to slow down during work knows what optimization is and how it happens. Manual setting The OS, which leads to the least load of processes and the release of resources, is a very time-consuming procedure. In addition, you can always miss something or configure it wrong. That is why there are optimization programs.

What are Windows optimization programs for?

Optimization programs perform a whole bunch of tasks, since improving system performance is a whole complex of actions consisting of a voluminous list. The main areas of application work can be roughly divided into categories:

• disk cleanup and windows registry from garbage and small mistakes;
• defragmenting hard disk partitions;
• search and update of drivers;
• optimization of system settings, parameters, services and startup;
• limiting internal windows programs: collectors of information for analysis, Windows Store and others;
• other optimizing settings.

All of the above can be done manually and spend a couple of hours on it. Or you can trust the software, crank up all the optimizing processes in a few minutes, and with almost no mouse or keyboard clicks. We can say that optimization programs are needed to improve performance. operating system, as well as facilitating user PC maintenance.

The author often uses programs for optimization, but still does not trust them one hundred percent. The fact is that some utilities can skip important points in optimization. For example, there is no application that is focused on disabling services, all programs clean this segment superficially, without much analysis. There are also problems with some internal restrictions for applications. Therefore, advice from the author: trust, but check and do not be lazy to take part in optimizing your personal.

The best programs to optimize your computer on Windows 10

With optimization like in boxing - put on the wrong boxer and flew into the tube. At the same time, no matter how young and strong he is, for the most part skills and experience are decisive. On the software market, everything is the same: you can only trust proven luminaries. Otherwise, you can not only not optimize anything, but even get a virus or a miner program.

CCleaner

CCleaner is one of best programs-optimizers, the main focus of which is cleaning the disk and registry from garbage. Also, a convenient interface for control has been added to the program's functionality installed programs, a separate item for configuring Windows startup and several other features.

CCleaner program is aimed at cleaning the disk and registry from garbage

Program features:

• removal of all traces of user activity on the computer;
• registry check, which includes everything from invalid file extensions to faulty shortcut paths;
• removal even standard applications Windows without additional conditions such as disabling the service;
• making edits to startup;
• analysis of disks for errors;
• search for duplicate files;
• wiping information on the disk.

Pluses of the program:

• the free version of the program differs from the paid one only by the possibility of technical support;
• small size and high productivity;
• very easy to understand interface;
• application speed;
• the ability to analyze the disk for the occupied space.

Cons of the program:

• significant were not found.

Advantages:

Excellent utility for disk cleaning. It is very convenient to clean with it system registry and delete from computer unnecessary programs... If you want to edit the startup list, then CCleaner does an excellent job with this task. Conveniently, programs in startup can be “turned on” and “turned off” - that is, you can temporarily exclude this or that application from startup, and then, if necessary, turn it on again. I like that when automatically cleaning the system from unnecessary data, the types of this data can be configured (for example, with using CCleaner you can delete not only all sorts of temporary system filesbut also cookies in Firefox, Internet Explorer and Opera). By the way, few people know that using a utility called CCEnhancer, you can significantly expand the number of programs supported by CCleaner (up to several hundred).

Disadvantages:

Not marked.

Summary and comments:

Highly useful programwhich, no doubt, should be installed on every computer.

Cons of the program:

• significant were not found.

Honestly, I did not come to Glary Utilities right away - simply because I was satisfied with another program, but we will not talk about it. However, over time, there was a lot of running around the city and I bought a netbook. As everyone knows, all parameters of nets are underestimated due to a weak processor and not the most powerful memory. That is why the previous program by itself just sometimes did not cope and hung up net. But the Glary Utilities program was just to the taste of my netbook. It does not suspend the computer, and in addition is able to solve almost all problems associated with software. This means optimizing the operating system, monitoring the laptop's battery, cleaning the registry, which, by the way, I try to do every 2 weeks, and I highly recommend it to you. the program also very efficiently carries out defragmentation of computer disks, unlike Windows! But the most convenient thing in this program, in my opinion, is the One Click Solvation module - that is, solving all problems with one click. It is convenient for me personally because I just press the button and go to do other things while the Glary Utilities program itself heals the computer. Agree that it is convenient. There are also a bunch of various interesting possibilities that I have not described, because of laziness. not because there are just a lot of them But if you install this program on your computer, you will see everything for yourself!

ADVANTAGES:

Lot useful opportunities, does not hang up the computer, cleans well

Choosing an optimizing program is not as easy as it might seem at first glance. Most of the applications specialize in a narrow field of application, therefore it is better to use them in complex with several programs at the same time.

Often the user is faced with the problem of slowing down the performance of the PC, slow loading of the system, a significant decrease in its performance and performance. The reason for this may be the accumulation of remnants of remote software in the "bins" of the OS, unnecessary entries in the registry, errors and other "garbage".

To solve these problems, you can use programs for cleaning and optimizing your computer, with which we will introduce you in this review. Each utility has a unique set of features, useful options, custom settings, and significant benefits. Explore the products and choose the best optimizer.

It is possible to simultaneously remove several items installed from the Windows store, display the rating of applications by the number of uninstallations after installation by other users. An easy search will help you quickly find the desired material by title.

Today on the Internet you can find dozens of programs, the authors of which promise that your computer will almost "take off" after using them. In most cases, it will work the same, well if you are not rewarded with a dozen ad modules (which are embedded in the browser without your knowledge).

However, many utilities will honestly clean your disk of garbage and defragment your disk. And it is quite possible that if you have not done these operations for a long time, your PC will work a little faster than before.

However, there are utilities that can really speed up the computer somewhat by setting the optimal windows settingsby configuring the PC properly for a particular application. I've tried some of the programs. I want to tell you about them. The programs are divided into three corresponding groups.

Speed \u200b\u200bup your computer for gaming

By the way, before recommending utilities for improving performance in games, I would like to make a small comment. First, you need to update the drivers for the video card. Secondly, adjust them accordingly. From this, the effect will be many times higher!

Game buster

In my humble opinion, this utility is one of the best of its kind! The authors got excited about one click in the description of the program (while you install and register it, it will take 2-3 minutes and a dozen clicks) - but it works really fast.

Capabilities:

1. Leads the Windows OS settings (supports the utility version XP, Vista, 7, 8) to the optimal ones for running most games. Thanks to this, they start to work a little faster than before.
2. Defragments folders with installed games... On the one hand, this is a useless option for this program (after all, Windows even has built-in defragmentation tools), but in all honesty, which of us does regular defragmentation? And the utility will not forget, if, of course, you install it ...
3. Diagnoses the system for various vulnerabilities and suboptimal parameters. Quite a necessary thing, you can learn a lot of interesting things about your system ...
4. Game Buster allows you to save videos and screenshots. It is convenient, of course, but it is better to use for these purposes fraps program (it has its own super fast codec).

Conclusion: Game Buster is a necessary thing and if the speed of your games is poor - try it unambiguously! In any case, personally, I would start optimizing the PC with it!

Game gain

Shareware program for setting hidden settings of the operating system. To do this, this utility needs to know a few things about your PC:

• its processor (for me, for example, in the screenshot AMD);
• Windows OS (In the example above version 8, but keep in mind that the utility is supported by others).

If the program has correctly identified your OS and processor, then press only one button - "Optimize" (optimize). In half a minute - the result is ready!

Conclusions: after the utility is running, it cannot be said that the computer began to work much faster, but in combination with other utilities it gives a result. It would be wrong not to mention it in this article. By the way, this utility has a paid version, which has a super-Fast mode (we could not test it).

Game Accelerator

Game Accelerator is not a bad enough program to speed up games. True, in my opinion it has not been updated for a long time. For a more stable and smoother process, the programs optimize Windows and hardware. The utility does not require specific knowledge from the user, etc. - just start, save the settings and minimize to tray.

Benefits and opportunities:

• several modes of operation: hyper-acceleration, cooling, setting the game in the background;
• defragmenting hard drives;
• "fine-tuning" DirectX;
• optimization of resolution and frame rate in the game;
• laptop power saving mode.

Conclusion: the program has not been updated for a relatively long time, but at one time, in a year 10 commercials helped to make your home PC faster. Its usage is very similar to the previous utility. By the way, it is recommended to use it in combination with other optimization utilities and cleaning windows from junk files.

Game fire

"Fiery game" translated into great and mighty.

In fact, a very, very interesting program that will help make your computer faster. Includes options that are simply not available in other analogues (by the way, there are two versions of the utility: paid and free)!

Benefits:

• one-click PC switching to turbo mode for games (super!);
• optimization of Windows and its settings for optimal performance;
• defragmentation of folders with games for faster access to files;
• automatic prioritization of applications for optimal game performance, etc.

Conclusion: in general, an excellent "harvester" for those who like to play. I recommend unambiguously for testing and familiarization. I really liked the utility!

Programs for cleaning the hard drive from debris

I think it's not a secret for anyone that over time, a large number of temporary files (they are also called "junk") accumulate on the hard disk. The fact is that when the operating system (and various applications) is running, they create files that they need at a certain point in time, then they delete them, but not always. Time passes - and there are no such deleted files becomes more and more, the system starts to "slow down", trying to rake a bunch of unnecessary information.

Therefore, sometimes, the system needs to be cleaned of such files. This will not only save space on your hard drive, but also speed up your computer, sometimes significantly!

And so, consider the top three (in my subjective opinion) ...

Glary utilities

This is just a super harvester for cleaning and optimizing your computer! Glary Utilities allows you not only to clean the disk of temporary files, but also to clean and optimize the system registry, optimize memory, make backup data, clear website history, defragment HDD, retrieve system information, etc.

What pleases the most: the program is free, frequently updated, contains everything you need, plus in Russian.

Conclusion: an excellent complex, with its regular use together with some utility for speeding up games (from the first paragraph), you can achieve very good results.

Wise Disk Cleaner

This program, in my opinion, is one of the fastest cleaning hard disk from various and unnecessary files: cache, visiting history, temporary files, etc. Moreover, it does nothing without your knowledge - first, the system scan process takes place, then you are told by deleting what, how much space you can get, and then unnecessary from the hard drive. Very comfortably!

Benefits:

• free + with Russian language support;
• there is nothing superfluous, laconic design;
• fast and corrosive work (after it, it is unlikely that another utility will be able to find something on the HDD that can be deleted);
• supports all Windows versions: Vista, 7, 8, 8.1.

CCleaner

Probably one of the most popular PC cleaning utilities, not only in Russia, but also abroad. The main advantage of the program is its compactness and high degree of Windows cleaning. Its functionality is not as rich as that of Glary Utilites, but in terms of removing "garbage" it can easily argue with it (and perhaps even win).

Main advantages:

• free with Russian language support;
• fast speed of work;
• support of popular windows versions (XP, 7, 8) 32 and 64 bit systems.

I think even these three utilities will be more than enough for most. By choosing any of them and regularly carrying out optimization, you can significantly increase the speed of your PC.

Windows Optimization and Settings

In this subsection, I would like to bring out programs that work in a complex: i.e. check the system for optimal parameters (if they are not set, set them), correctly configure applications, set the necessary priorities for various services, etc. In general, programs that will perform the whole complex of optimization and OS tuning for more productive work.

By the way, out of all the variety of such programs, I liked all of only two. But they do improve PC performance, and sometimes significantly!

Advanced SystemCare 7

What immediately captivates in this program is the orientation towards the user, i.e. you do not have to deal with long settings, read a bunch of instructions, etc. Installed, launched, clicked to analyze, then agreed to the changes that the program suggested making - and voila, the garbage is removed, with corrected registry errors, etc. becomes much faster!
